Sorry guys for some reason this was just not a good hatch with no fault of yours.However I'm thankful for the 3 I have and will try again with hopefully better results.Julie I hope the one's I sent you turn out good.I'll keep my fingers crossed.

It's hard to say, but I'd bet a medium blue. Usually the dark blues seem almost black to me at first. I had one that I really thought was black till he was a few weeks old and I saw him in the sunlight.

I will.The last one that tried to hatch pipped and half way zipped and then died in the shell.I opened it and the chick was fully formed and nothing looked out of the ordinary so beats me.There was at least two of Julie's mixed eggs that were chirping in the egg but never even pipped.I'm going to open the rest of them up tomorrow and see how many were close to maturity.Yes I do want to try again so if you will just keep me in mind when you think you may have an open date.Thanks for everything and sometimes you win and sometimes you lose.

I know, I know. My last hatch didn't go anywhere near as well as they usually do, either. I've had 100% and I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so that was disappointing. And no real explanation except the shipping factor. Oh, well, try, try again!
